Problems solved by technology

On heterogeneous networks, it can be difficult to debug errors that occur during running of an application, particularly an application on a non-SAP system.
However, conventional trace functions available to developers in a heterogeneous enterprise services architecture have limitations.
This functional trace, however, can only be activated by a user at an SAP system.
Moreover, the application

Embodiment Construction

[0011] Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments of the invention, the examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0012]FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an exemplary system 100 for using an application trace function module consistent with the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, system 100 comprises an application system 105, at least one client system 160 and, optionally, client system 110.

[0013] As shown in FIG. 1, application system 105 may include a database 150 and one or more application servers (120, 130, 140). In some exemplary embodiments, application system 105 may be a platform running SAP's NetWeaver, SAP's suite of development and integration components. One of the components of SAP's NetWeaver is SAP Web Application Server (SAP Web AS), which supports both ABAP code and Java code that meets the J2EE specific...

Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for making application trace data for a local system available to others within an enterprise services network. A user at system remote to the server can specify trace data collection preferences and trace data is collected based on the user preferences. The trace data is stored in a database at the server in a standard format for web browsers and accessible to users of both SAP and non-SAP systems.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for providing an application programming interface (API) for functional trace data and, more particularly, methods and systems for making application trace data for a local system available to others within an enterprise services network. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] An enterprise services network is an open architecture network incorporating services oriented architecture principles and web services technologies applied to enterprise business applications. Web services, and enterprise services networks, employ open standards, such as Extensible Markup Language (XML), Web Services Description Language (WSDL), HypterText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Secure HypterText Transfer Protocol (S-HTTP or HTTPS), Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), Universal Description, Discovery and Integration (UDDI), Business Process Modeling Language (BPML), Business Process Execution Language (BPEL), and others, to al...
